19 December 2025: Apollo Pharmacy, India’s largest and most trusted pharmacy network, today marked a significant milestone with the launch of its 1,000th store in Karnataka, located in Bengaluru.
This landmark expansion strengthens Apollo Pharmacy’s footprint across the state, enabling people to access a wide range of 50,000+ genuine medicines and wellness essentials closer to their homes. The network spans all 31 districts of the state, with a strong presence in administrative hubs like Bengaluru, Mysuru, Hubli, and Belgaum, and employs over 7,000 people.
About 10% of the Apollo Pharmacy stores in Karnataka operate round-the-clock, further enhancing accessibility. In Bengaluru, customers enjoy the convenience of receiving medicines in just 19 minutes or opting for same-day delivery via the Apollo 24/7 app, reflecting the network’s focus on speed and reliability.
